An Inner Exodus: The Many Diasporas of Balkan Cinema by Gareth Jones

What do Balkan filmmakers who leave their home countries gain from the often traumatic process of relocation? Jones poses this and other questions to several emigre directors, hailing from Bosnia, Macedonia, and Albania, who went on to address the difficulties of uprooting in their films. He adds that exodus takes many shapes. The former Yugoslavia, he writes, is a particularly poignant example of an "inner diaspora," "a diaspora of the soul by which the country has taken leave of its inhabitants

, not the opposite, suggesting an unhappy model for diasporas yet unimagined."

Is There a Balkan Cinema?: A Filmmakers' and Critics' Symposium Organized by Andrew James Horton with Dan Georgakas and Angelike Contis

The notion of Balkan cinema and whether or not such an entity can be said to exist has been debated in the region in recent years. To address this question, we surveyed a number of directors and critics active in the region. We asked three questions of each respondent and asked him or her to reply in either an essay or question- and-answer format.

We asked film directors the following three questions: 1) To what degree can we speak of Balkan cinema as well as the cinemas of specific Balkan countries? 2) What is the single most important issue that makes the biggest professional difference in your life as a Balkan filmmaker? 3) What five Balkan films would you select for wide international distribution?

We asked film critics the following questions: l) To what degree can we speak of Balkan cinema? 2) What do you like best about the cinema of this region? And 3) What five Balkan films would you select for wide international distribution?
